Roongrote Rangsiyopash, President & CEO of SCG, said, “I am very honored that His Excellency Prime Minister granted the opportunity for SCG to meet. We are developing 2 new projects and would like to seek guidance including the expansion of LSP Phase 2 and LSP debottlenecking project. LSP2 will employ advanced, environmentally friendly technology and will concentrate on the production of high-value-added products such as green polymers following the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) guidelines to create sustainable development. The project will be established in the same area as LSP1, benefiting from the availability of infrastructure to expand the plant. Official application submissions will be made on the following occasion. Apart from support Vietnam’s economic growth, we anticipate that these two projects will increase growing potentials for better quality of life with the future in-demand workforces to meet market expansion in the petrochemical and related industry.”

"We also provide updates on Long Son Petrochemicals Complex (LSP), which adheres to global safety and environmental standards. It is targeted for a partial start-up in 2022 and a full start-up in early 2023,” said Mr. Roongrote
